Lieutenant General Alexus Grynkewich, nominated by President Donald Trump and recently appointed as the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) and commander of U.S. European Command, expressed confidence that Ukraine can win the ongoing war against Russia. During his U.S. Senate confirmation hearing, Grynkewich emphasized the determination and tenacity of Ukrainians defending their homeland, noting that such resolve is difficult to fully comprehend without experiencing a similar threat.

Grynkewich, a U.S. Air Force general and former F-16 and F-22 pilot of Belarusian descent, succeeded General Christopher Cavoli in July 2025. His appointment continues a tradition of U.S. generals leading NATO's European military operations since 1951. Grynkewich's stance aligns with previous commanders of U.S. European Command, who have also expressed belief in Ukraine's potential to prevail in the conflict with Russia.
